Génesis 19:6 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 19:6

And Lot went out at the door unto them
At the door of his house:

and shut the door after him;
the door of the passage to his house, the courtyard door, for another word is here used; unless the one was properly the door, and the other a hatch: however, this precaution of shutting it was used to prevent the men of Sodom rushing in, and taking away the men by violence; and that Lot might have some opportunity of trying what he could do by arguments, to prevail upon them to desist from their attempt.

Génesis 19:6 In-Context

4 Aún no se habían acostado, cuando los hombres de la ciudad, los hombres de Sodoma, rodearon la casa, tanto jóvenes como viejos, todo el pueblo sin excepción.
5 Y llamaron a Lot, y le dijeron: ¿Dónde están los hombres que vinieron a ti esta noche? Sácalos para que los conozcamos.
6 Entonces Lot salió a ellos a la entrada, y cerró la puerta tras sí,
7 y dijo: Hermanos míos, os ruego que no obréis perversamente.
8 He aquí ahora tengo dos hijas que no han conocido varón; permitidme sacarlas a vosotros y haced con ellas como mejor os parezca; pero no hagáis nada a estos hombres, pues se han amparado bajo mi techo.
